But… what is ^the point^?
Most people do not concern themselves with electron states and spin as much as political and news spin.
Are you suggesting that cables have some alignment of their spin in the metal?or in the dielectric?
And then that they should be aligned with a strong magnetic...
^This^ is great - we are back onto silver from silver coloured CDs.
What is the insulator made of in ^those^ cables?
Is there more of a correlation to burn in with teflon or PTFE or vinyl, than with cotton or silk?
Yep - I concur with ^all that^…. If there is some buffering of the output, then the bits can put pushed out with a few cycles of delay to ensure that they are clocked out with a uniform spacing.
But ^all that^ has no thinking to do with the charge on the CDs.
And I may have to start at the...
If ^that^ was the case, then it would result in corruption of data on CDs and make things like excel spreadsheets in error… which we have never heard of…
It would induce a current flow in a wire, but there is no conductor.
There is no way for extra electrons to be deposited nor for extra...
What do CDs have to do with silver cables breaking in?
I suppose one would see bit errors then, with CDs?
And CDs used to hold data, would need magnets in their readers to prevent data corruption?
I am not even sure how, or if, a magnet would affect a static charge.
What is the hypothesis of what is getting “burned in?”
The conductor?
the insulation?
or something else?
What is getting magnetised?
(I thought Silver in particular was not very magnetic)
what is wrong with ^them^?
What is wrong with ^those^?
So far, all I have gleaned is that the fellow wants a TT.
Maybe just consider adding a TT to what he already has. There is always more to be done, but that gets it started.
Actually Ralph, while I generally agree… lets think about a finite number of bass frequency problem areas.
if one can magically suck out all the bass with absorbers, then there is only the power to push the bass out in the first place… and not power to try and overcome a null.
(If the room is...
That cost does no infer that he cannot have a nice system that he enjoys.
And one could spend $50k and have a system that is not enjoyable.
Secondly, in terms of what’s best, a well put together system, should be able to last decades.
Sure “the best” can evolve to be a moving target, but a TT...
^to what point?^
he/she said that they wanted a setup for vinyl, and 1/2 the posts brought in the New Testament news of digital.
if they asked for $10k and vinyl, then that is the system that they want.
(why start out with, “you are wrong and you do not want that.”
If I was disciplined I...
Also very hard to resell with posters like the one Ron is representing whom say they do not want to buy used gear.
if the Manhattan fellow or lady wants a system under $10K, then it seems worth a look.
they also will not likely abide room treatments, and that amp does an EQ in the room.
What...
A Lyngdorf TDAI 1120 or 3400 could be worth looking at.
It has a MM input, and all the streaming stuff built in.
it, some speakers, and then one only needs some speaker cables/zip-cords ;) … and they are done.
Running conduits between the “control center” and the speakers allows one to run cables later.
a lot of time people just like to staple wires to studs, which is not really as useful as a conduit to pull them through later.
^That^ said… if you are unsure then you may need a professional/...
While generally ^that^ is the consensus, anything going from mechanical to electric, or visa versa, is arguably the hardest.
So speakers/drivers, and carts can be more difficult than pure electronics.
Almost any solid state amp has distortion levels that are orders of decades lower than the...
Except the whole idea, or a lot of the idea of a preamp… is that one can change sources.
it is was dedicated to exclusively playing digital, then we could get by without a preamp.
so if a TV or something else is playing, then one get no value out of the other sources without being able to...
Good for you, however I would have created a poll if I was interested in which percentage of users understand the meaning of the quoted post.
Would then be so kind as to translate it into what the cutting engineer does when they cut the track, to make it better for the various aloignments Upon...
Crickey… It is worse than I thought ;)
I also have a 2-channel and HT hybrid. IMO That makes it much more difficult.
luckily my preamp has a “pass through”, so when it is off, the HT pre (AVP) just routes through the preamp and gets to the amp(s).
As good or bad as people like to rave about...
.
What does ^this^ even mean?
Are you talking about the length of the recording/groove spacing?
Most cutting is done with a linear tracking set up, so there is no standard for radius points…
And if “the thing cutting” it is turning at 33-1/3 platter speed, then “the thing playing” it would...
The best one I had for distance work was a SAAB 900.
That was before GM took over.
We used to do door to door trips averaging 70 mph. That is 840 miles in 12 hours, so fuel, breakfast, etc.
And it was bonkers at how well it handled snow and ice.
And pretty good with the Yokohama A008 on it in...
